    Bad paint prep??

    Hackjob Jim Buffin says it looked fine before you even started. Nice work cleaning it up. I'd say those spots are a result of poor bodyshop prep and paint. Not going to be safely removed by a detailer, or at least not without significant risk to you.

    ERA Shelby Cobra

    I used a small polisher for the rear half of the dash and did the rest by hand. There were a lot of deeper scratches and that area isn't as nice as I'd like it, but it came down to 'majoring in the majors'. If there was a bigger air compressor available, then a 2" pneumatic polisher probably...

    ERA Shelby Cobra

    The 427 I've gotten a very close look at came from a GT500, and some other SAAC photos Rand had; poor assumptions on my part, there are bound to be some differences. Very nice work.

    ERA Shelby Cobra

    Just like wisconsin, we don't have good roadster weather currently. But in the summer we will be burning some petrol. Thank you ERA is the replica manufacturer. As much as I'd like you to believe it's the real deal, it's not an original, though it's a very good replica, so no nerves to...

    ERA Shelby Cobra

    Thanks Thanks, they are beautiful cars, and the build quality on this one is very good. Heart goes pitter patter; knees and back do not. Thank you. Not a bad place to spend the day. Thanks! Even a Chevy guy can appreciate it. Thank you.

    ERA Shelby Cobra

    So true, the towel was there because he found some sand on the floor over there and thought there might be a gap in the door. I must have gotten the other picture just right because you can't see the extension cord is for a trickle charger. But the cord length is way too long, needs to be...

    ERA Shelby Cobra

    I've done several vehicles for this client and this is his latest acquisition. He previously tried to purchase the vehicle in an auction 4 months ago and came up short. Fast forward less than half a year and he was able to get it...at a premium...with swirls and RIDs recently installed...

    How do you guys do it?

    Usually I finish washing a car before the rotors get a lot of rust, then just move the car back and forth a few times to knock off any rust and blow or wipe the wheels again. Sounds like they dry completely before you get to them. Perhaps this would work for you if you kept going back to the...

    Important* new flex polisher question

    My backing plate does not wobble. Do you have the small factory washer installed? It will be more difficult to control, especially at higher speed. You really do have to keep the pad flat. Contact flex USA for you question. Powerhouse tool does warranty repair in the US.

    good quality pressure washer for a starter carwash business

    Are you mobile or at a fixed location? If mobile, how big is your transport? The kranzle k1622 is very popular in Europe. Small footprint and enough power and flow for the task. Commercial grade and serviceable.

    Mckees paint coating vs gyeon cure vs meguairs ultimate fast finish vs won't name

    I'm in the midst of testing cure and the nameless spray along with several others. As I recall from the last inspection, cure and nameless are both holding up about the same. One other nameless is blowing everything out of the water with durability, but application is horrid, especially as it...

    New to quickbooks but not to detailing.

    Just as a point for people reading in the future, there is a trick for adding addition local tax manually. You can add an additional percentage line item at the end of the invoice for the local tax. I believe it can also be assigned to the field or internal QB account so QB tracks it. It's...

    Go To Ink Stain Remover?

    It's going to be dependent on the type of ink you are working on, so I don't think there is any single remover that will work in all situations. Like anything we do, start with the least aggressive and work your way up. Ball point pen, felt tip pen, permanent marker, newsprint, etc are all...

    Red light and speeding cameras

    Illegal in minnesota due to the wording of our state statues and 'right to due process'. Paid for them to be installed for a short time, then paid to have them removed. Also paid for both parties to argue it all the way to the state Supreme Court.

    Mckee's Fast Interior Detailer

    Great post. I feel like most Interior QDs are obsolete these days when I can use an appropriately diluted rinseless wash like ONR or UWW to accomplish the same. But mckee's does everything absolutely perfect for me, so it is a must have in my arsenal. I know mckee's says it doesn't alter...
